I have shot in many locations all over the Bay Area, but Kohl Mansion has a particular significance to me. It was there that I shot my first wedding, after I started my company in 2003. I have been back several times since, and it's always a pleasure to shoot there. So much to work with and I love the feel of the Mansion. So when I met with Cindy and she told me that's where she was going to have her wedding, I definitely was looking forward to film there.
Cindy and Dan had an all star team vendors. Janece Shellooe of Every Elegant Detail transformed the Mansion into a lavish affair, while Thomas John Events was delecting their guests with top notch food. My friends at big Fun DJ were delivering the tunes of this classic wedding, while Augie Chang was just working his magic behind the camera to deliver some amazing photography.
It's always fun to work with such a talented crew, and it makes my job much easier.
A big thank you to Aaron Lee, who was helping me on the day to capture those precious moment, and a big thank you to you, who are stopping by to watch.
So without further do, here is Cindy and Dan's Highlight. I hope you will enjoy it.
Merci et a bientôt with many more new films coming your way.

Asian Art Museum- Jen and Mike - San Francisco
The perks of being a wedding cinematographer is to shoot in some amazing locations, and Asian Art Museum in San Francisco was definitely it. Jen and Mike wanted a classy yet intimate event for their wedding and the museum was perfect for that. The ceremony was elegant and simple, with a very personal ceremony orchestrated by one of Mike and Jen's best friend and heartfelt vows. This couple who has been together for 11 years truly love each other dearly, and seeing them gazing at each other was priceless.
The reception was no small feast either, as Asiel Design did an amazing job setting up with beautiful centerpieces. As for the food Global Gourmet Catering provided their guest with a scrumptious dinner.
It was great to work with my friends at Big Fun DJ, those guys definitely know what they are doing so if you are looking for a DJ don't hesitate to contact them. The event was beautifully captured by Erica Berger, who it is always a pleasure to work with.
Thanks to Jordan, Robb and my good friend James Burkart for helping me out capture their beautiful day, and thank you to you for stopping by. I hope you will enjoy their highlight.
Happy Sunday!

Natalie and JD - Monte Verde Inn - Forresthill, CA
Where does time go?
I can't believe it has been a month already since my last blog. Usually February is rather quiet and it is always time for me to catch up on editing and do some really fun stuffs. However, this year, February has been nothing short of a hurricane sweeping through CINEMATT. From back to back to back editorial shoots in Sacramento, and Las Vegas to WPPI, (which conveniently was held in Las Vegas, hence the shoot there) to settling in into my new studio in Belmont, February roared out and March kicked in.
So for those of you who follows me I'm sure you noticed that nothing new has come up on this page. Nothing new until today and Natalie and JD wedding film. This was a special film to me because when Natalie and JD hired me, they were only interested in getting raw footage. But after seeing those, Cindy, Natalie's mom, was quick to contact me and asked me to make a film for her daughter and son in law. I was ecstatic because this wedding was for me a cornerstone.
So many elements made this wedding so unique, from the vintage photo booth, to the great little placards everywhere, and a fun and friendly bridal party. Plus Nat and JD were an awesome couple, whose motto was: "Let's have fun". Hopefully the feature will show that. Thanks to Kerry and Kenneth for referring me to Nat and JD, and thank you for all of you who will watch all 22 minutes of the feature film. As always your comments are welcome.
I would also like to give a special thanks to Elley, from Elley photography, who was my second on that day, and was a real trooper. Thank you for your help!
